Amerik Posted April 16, 2022 Posted April 16, 2022 I was wondering as looking at it, it doesn't seem to do anything. Attached picture for reference.
Solution Deano87 Posted April 16, 2022 Solution Posted April 16, 2022 Air vent. Blows air at the pilot.

darkman222 Posted April 16, 2022 Posted April 16, 2022 (edited) Pretty sure its an air vent too. But I dont know why the hell I cant get rid of the imagination that a traditional center stick used to sit there before the engineers came up with the idea to equip the F16 with a fly by wire side stick and an aerodynamical unstable design. Which of course is complete nonsense. Edited April 16, 2022 by darkman222

It indeed an air vent, it seems to have a butterfly valve to close it and in the sim, it has been modelled closed. That's what confused me. This picture from a cockpit tour in youtube titled "F-16 Cockpit Tour, Test Pilot, Edwards AFB" shows it open: 1
104th_Crunch Posted April 19, 2022 Posted April 19, 2022 We need it modelled so the vent can be opened! Priority One! It gets stuffy in that cockpit. 3
